    One of my very favorite coins from our friendly neighbours to the North. I don't care much for copper, but I LOVE this coin! :)

    What chemicals did you paint/drip/smear on that before heating to get those colors?

    Yeah I am assuming it was at the end of a roll and that's why it toned like that. I picked that one up at $40 a few months ago.

    I am not a big fan of questionably toned Morgans. There are just too many available to compromise in that regard, just my 2 cents.

    i would have to agree with you 100%. the obverse looks AT all the way. the reverse could possibly pass

    I got a shipment of mint sets today and I was pleasantly surprised to find three toned pieces - very subtly toned, but distinctive anyway. Better than the stuff I was finding at the LCS...

    JFK's got the blues. Is this good toning, or some sort of environmental damage? - it's a pale milky blue.

    This 76 has some lovely subtle hues which I can't seem to capture in a pic, but I have exactly zero photography skill...

    [​IMG][​IMG]

    And finally, one that has a smooth, consistent light golden color...
